Meet Vegan Bodybuilder Jim Morris, Former Mr. America
Jim Morris: Lifelong Fitness, a documentary short by director Ryan Vance, features the story of vegan bodybuilder Jim Morris, the former Mr. America, Mr. USA, Mr. Universe, and Mr. International. This is a beautifully shot film of an inspirational competitor and all-around barrier breaker. Jim won the Mr. America competition by the widest margin in history, and he won the Mr. Olympic masters at age 61 as a vegetarian.
Jim was a professional bodybuilder for over 30 years, and is a soft-spoken and humble man who lights up the screen. At 78 years old, he’s still one of the fittest guys around and works as a personal trainer in Venice, California. In 2000, Jim became a vegan for health and ethical reasons. He credits his diet for his age-defying physique and fitness level.
Jim Morris: Lifelong Fitness was a 2014 Slamdance Film Festival official selection and has been screened at festivals all over the world.
For more information on Jim or the film, please visit the film’s Facebook page or Jim’s own site.
